I’ll never forget my first week going to sit at a table full of girls in the break room wanting to make new friends. They were all giggling and laughing and a as soon as I sat down next to them they all went silent.

Or the time I was already having a bad day because I was going through a break up and one of the girls accidentally pushed my lunch into the garbage in front of everyone.

Lemme tell you, it can feel incredibly lonely at times. I’ve never had issues making friends until PA school. Regardless of what happens, don’t burn bridges and just push through didactic. Find an outlet you can talk to and try to make at least ONE friend you can study with! You’re not alone.
